According to TMZ, Nick and Vanessa have been shopping for a place to call their own in the trendy South Park neighborhood in L.A. They checked out a 2 bedroom apartment in one of the cities luxury skyscrapers earlier this week. The couple, who got engaged in November, reportedly spend 45-minutes touring the apartment.

Although it certainly sounds like the apartment is a top contender, they didn’t plunk down any cash for the unit. Apparently Nick and Vanessa want to check out a few more before they make a decision.

Vanessa moved in with Nick several months ago when he became a contestant on Dancing with the Stars. The apartment currently live in is leased by the folks at DWTS. They need to find a new place ASAP now that his time on the show is over.

And then there are rumors that the couple may be considering a show of their own. Remember Ben and Lauren: Happily Ever After on Freeform?

There are rumblings that Nick and Vanessa may go that route, with Vanessa saying, “never say never” when asked in a post-Bachelor media call if they would do another reality TV show.

For now, it appears that Nick is focused on finding a place to live in L.A. and his new business, The Polished Gent.

As far as a wedding goes, he admits to People that they have no plans to set a date just yet. Nick says they have a lot more to learn about each other. Perhaps going slow is a good thing considering Bachelor couples date, and get engaged, at warped speed.
